How to Train an Artificial Neural Network to Predict Higher Heating Values of Biofuel

open access: yesEnergies, 2022
Plant biomass is one of the most promising and easy-to-use sources of renewable energy. Direct determination of higher heating values of fuel in an adiabatic calorimeter is too expensive and time-consuming to be used as a routine analysis.
